Does parking in N gear damage the car?

[LaGiselle]

Parking in N gear does not damage the car, but it is unsafe. Here is the relevant information: 1. Automatic transmission: As the name suggests, an automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears. The vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. Generally, automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, from top to bottom: P, R, N, D, S, L. 2. N gear: N gear is the neutral gear. You can shift into this gear when parking, but when parking on an uphill slope, you should engage the handbrake to avoid rolling. For long-term parking, shift into P gear and engage the handbrake.
